the racersX fmic fits perfect with grimmspeed intake, many years now

need a skid plate...

looking for nameless muffler deletes... im in 10950 NY

anyone going to wbm leaving from rockland/ bergen area?

i went IAG stage 2 block so i can decide to turn it up if i want down the road

currently a road tune with STi Mikey at about 19psi

 

car pulls harder than previous 19psi map from prior tuner.which was 403whp

so id imagine its even more at the wheels now

i had been previously tuned by Mikey before the stage 2 block. and it was perfect 350whp, 330tq, at 17psi i think.

prior to that i was tuned by Lance Lucas during his residency at EFI,

first tune was with the late C.S.K at EFI

 

having experienced multiple tuners now on the same vehicle, its easy to see

hear, and feel the difference in tuners.

so... ditched the DDA tune, had STiMikey do me a full road tune. Car feels 1000x better. Smoother boost transition, amazing driveability. more power with less boost. no more partial throttle stumble. the DDA tune made power, but just wasnt what i wanted

just updating... smile ear to ear. car is a blast to drive. ive had fun with a few other cars on the road, and no one expects my spool and take off! its a blast

recently completed my build:

Stage II IAG block

fully supported:

 

Blouch1.5XTR 3in, 10cm

Custom Killer BEE style manifold, EWG up-pipe TIAL 38mm open dump

Grimmspeed CAI, 3in turbo inlet,

IAG fuel rails, Aero REG, TGV deletes

Hexmods Trans Valvebody

single exit 3in exhaust

 

conservative, 20psi 402whp 348tq

tapers to 18 on the shift

 

she will make more soon.

 

meth in the works

dyno time is complete

 

Mustang Dyno at DDA in Newburgh NY

 

20psi tapering to 17psi

 

402whp/ 346wtq

 

keeping it tame untill i can install the brass center diff bushings.

 

 

Also debating adding meth.

100 miles of break in driving complete, 900 to go before we turn on the boost.

drives smooth feels great. cant wait!

she comes home tomorrow night

Build and tune is being completed by DDA. Very happy with their work, and only 25 minutes from my house.

yea after 2500 im going to up her to 15lbs to give her a little heat during the end of break in. then after 3k goal is 24psi

builder will be doing initial break in of 1000 miles. IAG recommends 3000 before tuning her all out. Ill be doing varied driving on 4psi max for 2k before we can turn up the PSI. Should have her back in my hands end of next week. Ill have about 1 month to pull off 2k of driving so that she can be fully tuned for WBM2018

if going meth, i would use a multi failsafe system. my only problem with e85 is the vehicle will not be driven regularly and i dont want e85 sitting for periods of time.

 

My tuner is a big fan of meth, for build styles like mine.

 

I also plan to integrate an intercooler sprayer.

i cant fully decide on doing an e85 map, or running an aquamist kit...

the build has finally begun, she was brought to the shop to go under the knife.

Her daily driven duties are done. I daily a Honda Ridgeline. She is going pure fun car/ race car mode. safety is key, don't want to just blow her up for no reason. I know im not setting any records so adrenaline is all I want. also to know that fuckheads with luxury bought cars wont be able to touch me.

 

built over bought any day

glass cleaner from Shine Supply or CarPro is killer.

 

proper methods will go a long way!! never try and clean super hot glass or super cold.

rammount.com makes a nice flexible arm that bolts to the seat track, and can hold all sorts of accessory like garmin ball or laptop mounts. I use it with a ball and mount my cobb like that, super low key and not in the way

no cams in my future don't want to spin her like that, plus having the 5eat even with valvebody and brass diff bushings, I don't want to eat her alive.

 

e85 is now an option for me as a local station has it regulary and is only a few minutes from me. I will still tune for 93 for daily, but will also have an e85 map made for fun.

 

e85 for when I drive to wicked big meet.

IAG stage II block is in my living room the build commences after the holidays

already top feed converted with ID1000's

 

e85 isn't a requirement right now, but maybe down the road after I like the 93 for a while.

 

already running a aluminum rad, with stand alone trans cooler on a Deralle T stat.

 

suspension and brakes are complete, tarmac 1. All whiteline bushings around, all avo bars, hotchkis sways, kartboy links, Porterfield pads, DBA rotors.

 

 

wideband isn't listed but being completed during the build. Using the Tuning alliance integration kit.

Over all numbers aint my goal, not trying to set records or break axles.

 

just looking for a very unique fun street set up, that can romp on people who have spent way more.

 

as she sits now she is exactly how I want her to be, but having a supported block I will turn it up just a tad from 19 to 23/24 and that should be a riot.
